Rants & Incendiary Tracts: Voices of Desperate Illumination 1558-Present

When the mind boils over and thought becomes invective; when the airing of an opinion becomes compulsion; when love and hate become interchangeable; prepare to confront a rant.

Anarchists, Nihilists, Murderers, libertarians, pedophiles, Luddites, satanists—from Valerie Colanas’s The Society for Cutting Up Men (S.C.U.M.) Manifesto to Ezra Pounds’s treasonous broadcasts to a notorious pirate’s high seas bluster—56 examples of untethered expression populate this one-of-a-kind volume.
